KARACHI: The prices on cotton market remained steady amid sustained demand from spinners on Thursday.
However, delay in phutti (seed-cotton) arrivals continued to hamper trading activity.
Despite early sowing, many areas in lower Sindh could not harvest the crop due to heatwave.
Short supply of cotton is keeping trading activity restricted and slow.
Traditionally, at the start of new season most of the demand for cotton is mostly met from phutti arrivals from lower Sindh.
